Girl Scout Night at the MN Aurora - Early access to register to attend Girl Scouts Night at MN Aurora FC (a pre-professional women’s soccer team) with hands on activities and a chance to meet our new CEO, Marisa Williams. Now through June 4th, registration is exclusively open to Girl Scouts who have renewed their membership for the 2023–2024 Girl Scout program year. Kick off your new Girl Scout year with this fun opportunity!
To qualify as an Early Bird troop, troops need to register at least one troop leader and half of 2022-2023 troop members by June 30, 2023. (Half equals 50 percent of troop membership as of March 31, 2023.) Troop leaders can check to see how many Girl Scouts are currently registered in their troop by logging in to MyGS and viewing their roster. New troops that formed between April 1–June 30, 2023, qualify if they have one troop leader and at least three Girl Scouts registered for the upcoming membership year. Girl Scout Juliettes who register a mentor and one Girl Scout are eligible for all “troop incentives.” Parents and caregivers can register and/or renew memberships for anyone in their family.
Why wait? Take the next step on your Girl Scout journey by renewing your membership during Early Bird from May 1 through June 30.
